From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.2.1) Gecko/20010901 Description of problem: Clean install (everything), start gnome - nautilus crashes. after rm -fr /tmp/* , /tmp/.???* ~/.gconf* ~/.gnome* ~/.nautilus* ~/.X* ~/.ICE ~/.MCOP* and reboot the problem is gone but it comes back after a few days/hours, have not been able to figure out what it exactly is that makes it to crash. Just now it works again but the behaviour is strange, sometimes it just segfaults and sometimes i get also messages about some insertion failed, four or five of them (don't find any of them from /var/log or elsewhere at the moment), sorry but I don't remember them exactly. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1.start gnome (either by init 5 or startx) 2.see nautilus die 3. Actual Results: see description Expected Results: no crash Additional info: The system as such (os, gnome, etc) is still fully usable, I have not seen anything else that would not work (the desktop help, yes, but it would be part of nautilus, right?)
Oh, forgot to mention: [eteemuj@armada eteemuj]$ up2date -u Retrieving list of all available packages... ######################################## Removing installed packages from list of updates... ######################################## There are no packages available for update. None of the packages you requested were found, or they are already updated.
When it happens again, maybe you could collect all the configuration directories in a tar archive and attach them to the bug, so we can reproduce the problem?
Ok, it's down again. These are the messages I get when I try to start it manually. I'll make a tarball of my .gnome* and some others, including an strace -f [eteemuj@armada eteemuj]$ nautilus Message: Successfully registered `OAFIID:nautilus_factory:bd1e1862-92d7-4391-963e-37583f0daef3' GnomeVFS-CRITICAL **: file gnome-vfs-uri.c: line 677 (gnome_vfs_uri_append_string): assertion `uri != NULL' failed.

Ahem, It's working again. I removed yesterday three dirs from my homedir .nautilus .gnome/nautilus-scripts .gconf/apps/nautilus And today nautilus woke up clean. Don't know if this helps you, hope so. Cheers, /Teemu Junnila
Down again, tried to clean the sam dir, no go. Not much for messages, just the segfault: [eteemuj@armada eteemuj]$ nautilus Segmentation fault [eteemuj@armada eteemuj]$ nautilus -c Segmentation fault /Teemu
I have come to the conclusion that I must have HW problems, I very strongly suspect that my HD is defect. Thank you for having patience with me:) /Teemu
